Programme Overview

The Henley Executive Hedge Fund Programme is an immersive program for professionals looking for a comprehensive understanding of Hedge Fund management. You will be taught through a blend of workshops, online study and group work to gain practical experience of the hedge fund industry.

Bloomberg Anywhere access, which provides professionals with access to high-quality news, data and analytics is available for participants for the Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo programmes.

Who is it for?

Individuals with a good undergraduate degree and a minimum of 3 years’ relevant experience in financial services. Typical participants include hedge fund employees, individuals looking to start a hedge fund, professional investors and members of family offices, career movers (interested in moving from the sell side to the buy side), banking professionals, lawyers, fund administrators and IT providers.

A holistic approach

Our hedge fund programme will make you stand out. Other programmes cover just one area such as portfolio management but this programme will give you invaluable insight into the Hedge Fund business as a whole, from set-up to management.

A diverse network

You will mix with leading hedge fund industry veterans and develop a strong network. In addition to time spent in workshops and group learning, the networking cocktails provide opportunities to build your contacts and learn from your peers.

Top industry professionals

All our tutors and speakers are leading Hedge Fund professionals, so you will learn from first-hand experience and the latest market insights. Mentors experienced in hedge fund management and operation will also guide you throughout the learning journey. Previous mentors include Nine Masts Capital, CQS, Oasis, Toccata Capital, Aurigin Capital and Akebono AM.
